Summary
Mike Wheeler has been captured by Vecna. Will Byers can feel it happening.
The connection they’ve always shared—the one that felt like coming home—is now a thin, screaming wire in Will’s mind. Through it, he doesn’t just feel Vecna holding Mike. He feels him changing him. Taking their best memories and dyeing them black, turning every inside joke into a trigger, every moment of trust into a lie.
Will has to get him back. But how do you rescue someone who’s being taught, moment by moment, that you’re the enemy?
or
Five stages of grief, witnessed in real time as Will fights not just a monster, but the horrifying, weaponized version of his best friend that the monster is building from the inside out.

Summary
AU where Robert has powers his dad forced him to suppress in his youth. Upon stepping into the role of Mecha Man Blue, Robert runs himself into the ground physically, mentally, and financially to uphold his family’s legacy. It’s what he was born and raised for, after all. He can’t afford to fuck it up. He’s nothing outside of it. His dad was so keen on drilling that into his head.
…with that kind of pressure on him, is it any wonder he starts to act out? It really shouldn’t be surprising that he needs to let off some steam, some charge, so he doesn’t lose his cool doing real hero work. Call him a hypocrite. Call him a supervillain in a hero’s suit. Robert’s long since past the point of caring.
It’s just a shame he’s working so closely with people who know the hallmarks of a real villain a lot better than he would like them to. He’ll have to keep his work and his fun separate, for the team’s sake if nothing else. They mean a lot to him. He genuinely wants to help them succeed in their redemption arcs.
But he has no intention of stopping. Not when he’s finally back in his prime.
Not for anyone.

Summary
What if in “The Battle of Starcourt”, Eleven managed to escape through the elevator after Max was knocked out by Billy?
What if Mike didn’t?
What if the Mind Flayer (AKA Vecna) took an interest in him and decided to make him a part of the hivemind, knowing Eleven would most likely walk right into the trap trying to save him?
What if the only person who could bring him back from possession was Will Byers?

Summary
Mecha Man is dead. In both legacy and the man behind it, Mecha Man is dead. All that's left is Robert Robertson the third, who puppeteers Mecha Mans corpse on Shroud's command, using the suit when needs must and his hacking skills when it doesn't.
However, when Chase finds Robert again after all these years he's not going to let him go again, not even when they're on different sides. There's one last chance for Robert, even if that involves unravelling just how Robert can stand at the side of his fathers killer... and making him deal with a rag-tag team of reformed villains along the way.
After all, nobody ever said it would be easy for any of them.Series

Summary
Blonde Blazer focused on him with a bittersweet look. Posture weary as her shoulders were slightly slumped into themselves, her hands tightened into fists. "Chase." She sighed. "I was just looking for you. Come in."
They both entered her office, tension settling in the room as she beckoned him to her desk where her computer sat.
"We found Robert."

Am I going against canon and only going based off the first four episodes? Yes. Do I have a thing for my favourite characters gaining avian-like traits? Absolutely fucking yes.
